So, I'm building for a pc to monitor my cameras. I had another thread but felt it's better suited here. I'm fairly settled on the cpu, gpu, ram, amd storage. I just want to make sure my PSU, case, and MoBo will work. Thank you

The PSU is fine though I hope you are buying that HD 7870 used on ebay for $100 rather then the $370 which for even $120 cheaper you can get a used R9 290x

That GPU is ass, get a GTX 970.

The mobo, case, and psu will be fine. The 8320E is usually a good overclocker, so do that if you get a cooler, a Hyper 212 EVO is nice and cheap, I'd get one of those.

Same guy who needed 6 display outputs? You don't need the 7850, that 7750 should be fine for display outs, and you'd still want the purple drives or just NAS drives in general for 24/7 use

and this would be my recommended cheap AM3+ board

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?
